Among those that might be recognizable to North American fans are former Strikeforce fighter Rodrigo Damm and IFL veteran Delson Heleno. As is customary on the U.S. version of the show, the biggest names belong to coaches Vitor Belfort and Wanderlei Silva.

The oldest (Gustavo Sampaio, 35) and youngest (Thiago Rela, 22) fighters in the field both come from the middleweight category. Meanwhile, Heleno with his 29 pro fights, is the most seasoned while 3-0 Richardson Moreira is the least experienced.

The elimination round is set to debut on March 25, and will air on UFC.com. The UFC and FUEL TV have both acknowledged a hope of airing the show on television, but as of yet, a deal that would make it possible has yet to be officially announced.
